When her dad’s gone, Emma moves to a new academy for a fresh start, but the town’s BIG FOUR, Rowan, August, Liam and Karl, rule everything. Each dangerous, magnetic, and unpredictable, they pull her into their dark world. But the real danger isn’t them—it’s the secret deal that ties her to a deadly game she was never meant to play.
Standing, I massage my lower back as I walk, which is more of a waddle these days, and lock my door before returning to my desk. Then I open the bottom drawer, removing the false bottom to retrieve my safe. It’s not long before I pick up and power on the burner phone, inserting the…
Fucking men! “If you’re too dense to see that we’ve only ever seen Emma as a sister, then it’s good we’re the ones making the calls regarding her security,” Fernando adds. Closing my eyes, I pray to whatever divine entity is listening that they’ll spare me all of this bullshit. “Enough,” Uncle Uilliam barks. “None…
O: Get out of the car, you chicken shit. Wy: What he said. You’re not going to make things up to her from inside your car. Pussy up already. Of course, they would hit me with the rip the bandaid off and take my ass inside approach. “Dicks,” I mumble to myself. Bash: Stop your…
Have they gotten bigger? “Ouch! Shit,” I yelp, rubbing the spot where she pinched me before she lifts my chin. “My eyes are up here. Focus and answer my questions,” Emma chastises, rolling her eyes. Licking my lips, I sneak one more peek and then nod. “What did you ask me?” “What video?” “The one…
Moaning, I relax, allowing myself to get lost in the feel of his mouth on mine. His tongue slips between my lips, and I meet his advances with my own. My hands travel up the expanse of his broad, muscular chest before I wrap them around his neck. I can’t press completely into him because…
Yup, I’m going to go to jail for knocking out some snot-nosed sixth grader. “Who is it?” I press, trying to remain calm. Turning, Jamie’s lips thin. “Killian Porter,” she hisses. Porter. Why does that last name sound so familiar? Clenching and unclenching her fists, she huffs, “He says his brother went to high school…
It’s at this moment that I’m grateful I’m alone and Liam isn’t here because I certainly would’ve forgotten myself and fucked him senseless, ignoring the fact I’m still upset with him. Sighing at the reminder of their betrayal, I turn away from the bookshelf, striding toward my bed. It’s only then I see a brand…
She stands, smoothing out her clothes before grabbing her rust-colored Dior purse. “Good. I’m glad I didn’t give birth to a quitter. Now come and have lunch with me.” “Why do you think we’re here?” Karl asks as we exit the elevator outside the Council’s chambers. An hour after I had lunch with my mother,…
“You scared us, Ry,” Jamie mutters as we get ready to watch a movie with Kellan and Kylan. Her jewel-green eyes well with tears. “Don’t cry, Jams. I’m here, and everything is going to be okay,” I say, trying to reassure her. She shakes her head. “Nothing’s been okay since Dad was taken three years…
My breath hitches, robbing me of the necessary air to process what I’ve read. Saying I’m sorry will never be enough, and even if you never forgive me, know that I made the decision-not any of the guys. Just know that we’re coming for you as soon as we possibly can, and I promise to…
